Tip of the Week

A diet rich in soy can help decrease the severity of the dreaded hot flashes waiting for those approaching or experiencing menopause. Soy supplements, now available in tablet or powder form, make increasing soy consumption easier, especially if youīre not nuts about tofu. Recommended amounts of soy protein average around 50 g per day. Soybeans and soy products contain phytoestrogens and isoflavones, which have been shown to be highly effective in decreasing menopausal symptoms because of its ability to modulate estrogen levels. Significant phytoestrogens have also been found in cashews, peanuts, oats, corn, wheat, apples and almonds. The genisten in soy products has also shown promise in some testing to decrease cancer risks.
